“The overall experience was just okay. It was almost like being the backseat of your grannies car, while she shared stories about “back in the day.” The tour sites were cool, it was just our guide that was super boring. Then, she passed our street “canal,” drove about 5 blocks over to let others off, then told us that she couldn’t get back over because the parades were starting. We understood that concept, but we were already right there at canal. She could have let us off there versus walking 5 blocks.”

“This was a great City Sightseeing tour, and we have done many over the years. Our driver, Oreal, and our guide, Ron, we're super. The information given on the tour was informative but fun at the same time. So much better having a live tour than having the prerecorded headset versions. We saw lots of parts of the city that I don't think we'd otherwise have seen. Thanks for a great tour!”

“This tour was absolutely a must! It was wonderful to learn about New Orleans with a local man, Jared, who drove our minivan. Jared was very professional, knowledgeable. The amount of information we learned and all the territory we covered was amazing. My favorite part was City Park! We wish we had more time there. City Park was beautiful and had so many things to do!
